I upgraded my dual sim to the latest and now the Dual sim implementation is all screwed up. I cannot see the sim1, sim2 in texting and also while calling now there is a pop up. Any help.

Did you find already a solution?
i also recognized the "issue" or better saying: missing the feature after upgrading.

when texting against each contact it will show what sim it is used with and you change it to another one if needed . change how it behaves when calling in phone app settings

So, every time I dial a contact I need to select which sim to use. This is fine when using the dial pad, but its a bit annoying when using direct dial.
Is there any way to pre assign a sim to a specific contact or do something similar to automatic sim selection, like what Motorola has?
Thanks in advance

On stock I don't think so. I use the pixelphone pro dialer where you can select defaults for each sim.
Lolipop Dual SIM automatic selection problem
Hi, well, alternative dialers were always here - I personally use TrueDialer, which automatically detect preffered SIM based on Call history and other parameters
BUT - after upgrade to Lolipop on Xperia Z3 dual sim, this not possible anymore. Since the upgrade Truedialer and others automatically selects the right SIM but then SIM selection from the system pops up anyway . This is an annoying problem - anybody know how to fix it?
Cheers

I have a question please I have HUAWEI HONOR 6x (BLN-L21) EMUI 5.0.1 with dual Sim option and rooted but with android 7 (Nougat) it doesn't work. I have 2 Sim cards from different carrier with android 5 and 6 it was working fine . but andoind 7 (Nougat) if I am on call the 2and Sim won't take the call will go straight to voicemail or offline. Is there is way I can have both Some cards work @ the sametime? Also something happened with call recording with android 7 nougat Thank you in advance.
It works by default. If you are in call on one sim, you will get notified for call on othet sim during call.
Did you find a solution to this? Whichever sim is selected as the 4G/Data sim is the only one that works- the other has an 'x' on the signal bar. Android 7.

Happening all the time or only when the call is received on one sim?
Happening all the time. I tried swapping the physical cards and same effect. I'm only getting getting a network signal (data or otherwise) on whichever sim is selected for 4g/data.
Hi. I`ve got an MHA-L29 and I`ve got a problem with dual sim settings. In dual sim setting menu if I select default mobile data (4G services associated with default SIM) on SIM 1 then I lose the signal from that sim (Emergency calls only) and I`ve got SIM 2 signal. If I select default mobile data on SIM 2 I lose signal from that sim and I receive signal on SIM1. Basically, I can`t have both sim working (network signal) because I need to set 1 SIM on default mobile data and the one that I set it`s losing signal.
Maybe someone can help me. Thanks

This is strange behavior.
By default there is no problem. See my screenshot.
I suppose it is mobile operator's problem.
What is your full version (settings / about phone / build version) ?
What is your country and mobile carriers?
It`s not a mobile operator problem. I use the same sims on mate 8 and it`s fine. It`s exactly like in your screenshot, sim 1 default mobile data and I lose signal, and I have signal on sim 2. If I select sim 2 default mobile data I lose signal on sim 2 and receive signal on sim 1. So basically I can`t use dual sim and mobile data.
I`m in UK with BT and Lycamobile.
Build version was MHA-L29C432B198 but I`ve tried different things and now I`ve got nrd90m test-keys.

Agree, C432 region is for UK too. So your bug must not exist, but it is here.
Nrd90m test-keys means that metadata from oeminfo does not match with current ROM.
Did you try to rebrand? If yes, just flash ROM again what you flashed last time.
I`m trying now to rebrand, watching tutorial but I`m stuck at
After device enter TWRP, connect to USB cable.

Something blocked adb. Maybe HiSuite. Turn it off, then check that pc recognises device.
adb devices
You can issue to refresh adb
adb kill-server
Phone must be in twrp.
I`ve managed to do all the steps, but after restart I can`t get past the Huawei logo, phone enters in Huawei eRecovery where I have Download latest version and recovery (restore your system with wifi) reboot or shutdown. I`ve tried to restore the system with wifi but I can`t (getting package info failed). I don`t know what went wrong during the process but the phone it`s stuck at huawei erecovery.
So now I`ve managed somehow to update emui to 8.0 and android 8.0 and I have build number MHA-L29 8.0.0.321 (C432log), but the initial problem it`s still there.
I still can`t use mobile data or both sims in the same time. The sim selected to be default mobile data lose signal.
I`ve tried to use 1 sim and sdcard but I don`t have signal because the sim it`s set by default to be mobile data.
Anyone?

Seems to be hardware issue. Do you have warranty?
I don`t have warranty. Both sims slots work fine one at the time, not together.
I need 10 posts on the forum so I can upload a screenshot.

OK. Last thing - try to delete and recreate apn settings.
Don't think that they all incorrect, but maybe one of them...
The Mate9 is active/passive: it's impossible to make a call using sim 1 and using mobile data with sim2 but in stand by you can receive calls on both sim. This limitation is not present on mate8 and mate10.

I`ve tried other sims, put new apn and it`s the same.
pgmunzi I can`t because I don`t have signal on one of the sims. In dual sim settings, I need to set sim1 or sim2 to be default mobile data. With sim1 set on default mobile data, I`ve got signal on sim2 and no signal o sim1 (emergency call only), not even to receive. With sim2 set on default mobile data, I`ve got signal on sim1 and no signal on sim 2.

You can only have data on SIM1. Both sims can be used for calls and SMS (to my understanding). If you have two SIM cards from the same network it should not be a problem, overall. If you have two different networks (one on each SIM) then you might have some issues.
If you have the SIMS on the same network, and they use the same APN, you might want to copy the settings to two different APN's a label them for SIM1 and SIM2.
Also be careful of what version of OS you use. If you download a version that is originally branded for something else, then expect problems. There are also "Gotcha's" with firmware that is taken from one device and reconfigured to work on your device. Usually this is a matter of rebranding and copying underlying code over. This too causes issues with dual SIM phones. I have found this to be true with my MHA-L29C567. Sadly, I would love to have a memory card under the second sim slot along with a second SIM, but I have yet to figure that one out...

Just got the same problem (2 sim cards from same network, only obe working at a time) and thanks to you it's solved. I just had to rename the second APN differently.
I have the same problem. Is it solve? Hv been searching for solution.

hi i just wanna ask if uve solved this, Im currently facing the same problem
my both sim are working fine but some time one sim card not work when i reinsert sim. it does work. so what is the issue?
Hi all,
Here is my situation and problem. I have 2 Sims:
SIM 1: Google Fi - my personal number, I want to use it for phone calls only even though it has a small data lan
SIM 2: Verizon - work sim, I want all the data to go through here.
My setting is phone call sim 1 and data Sim 2.
When I make a phone call via SIM1, I lost LTE on my SIM2.
I did call Verizon to get the CDMA LESS feature turned on.
If I were to change the setting to phone call and data through the same sim, then VoLTE works just fine. So I think this is an issue with the phone itself/settings.
Thoughts?

You need to go into settings "SIM & network settings".
Select "Dual 4G networks".
I don't have your issue.

Can't believe there are so few of us having this issue. Why would the LTE turn off when I'm not even using that sim?
Probably many are using just a single SIM.
Have you tried switching the sims in the slots?

I have no help. In January Mint had an issue where their SIM had to be in slot 1. So I flipped SIMs. Truphone won't work either.
Hello,
I purchased that phone off eBay since it was listed as Dual sim, the sim tray support Sim+Sim/SD Card, but only has 1 IMEI, so inserting a sim card in the second sim slot, do nothing. I read that dual sim will be enabled with software update, but I updated software to September 1 security patch level, but nothing has changed.
Service provider software version is: SAOMC_SM-A536U1_OYM_XAA_12_0009 XAA/XAA/XAA
Maybe your card faces the wrong direction ? Contacts have to show to the outside.
Check in the settings menu 'connections->sim-card administration' if there is a (greyed out) second sim slot available and look at 'phone info->status information->IMEI-info' if there is a second slot entry with corresponding number just to be sure that there isn't a software issue.

No. There is no sim card manager settings. Sim card is inserted correctly, only one IMEI, so that's why 2nd SIM is not working
Expected that all sm-a536 devices support dual-sim. Maybe it's a restriction from your carrier or firmware since you still got the Sim+SD/Sim2 slot. Seems the us variants are a bit cut short with no unlockable bootloader ec..
Helloo!! Any progress on this? IF I install another version like the EU one, would I see the dual sim options? I can be believe the phone is hardware capable but the firmware blocks it
Hi every one !
Anyone has an idea of how to unlock the dualsim capability ? Maybe by flashing a different region/country firmware ?
Thanks !
I just checked for a software update and I got the Android 13 and UI 5 update (near 2GBs) and the dual sim capability was enabled with this update. A second IMEI appears and the 2 sim cards got both signal.
Before installing the update, I took out the SD card and placed a 2nd SIM. Don't know if that had something to do with the dual sim capability enabling.
The Dual Sim Capability is not the same as with other Samsungs. You have no option to set a SIM card as default for calls and text or always ask before making a call, and the other one as default for DATA, only as primary, and the primary is the default for everything. But with the Google phone APP I was able to set the SIM Settings to either one or always ask.
It doesn't have a separate Network Mode for secondary SIM either.

Glad I'm not alone in this. It's like pulling teeth with people convincing them there's an unlocked dual-sim us version sm-a536u1 (sm-a536uzkdxaa). Obviously Samsung is little help in this. I've removed the actual IMEI numbers for obvious reasons.
